Описание: In this reprint of a classic Indian Captivity Narrative from the 19th century, Nelson Lee recounts his adventures and his narrow escape from the Comanches in tales nearly too tall to be true. From South America to Texas, he finds adventure everywhere. Lee emerges from one hairy situation only to ride into another daring adventure with the coolness of a Hollywood hero. For three years he is held captive among the Comanches. Tortured by his captors, this Texas Ranger survives to tell others about what he observes and learns about the Comanche tribe, and publishes one of the best descriptions of the life of the Texas Rangers.
Winner, The Early American Literature Book Prize Ethnology and Empire tells stories about words and ideas, and ideas about words that developed in concert with shifting conceptions about Native peoples and western spaces in the nineteenth-century United States. Contextualizing the emergence of Native American linguistics as both a professionalized research discipline and as popular literary concern of American culture prior to the U.S.-Mexico War, Robert Lawrence Gunn reveals the manner in which relays between the developing research practices of ethnology, works of fiction, autobiography, travel narratives, Native oratory, and sign languages gave imaginative shape to imperial activity in the western borderlands.
In literary and performative settings that range from the U.S./Mexico borderlands to the Great Lakes region of Tecumseh’s Pan-Indian Confederacy and the hallowed halls of learned societies in New York and Philadelphia, Ethnology and Empire models an interdisciplinary approach to networks of peoples, spaces, and communication practices that transformed the boundaries of U.S. empire through a transnational and scientific archive. Emphasizing the culturally transformative impacts western expansionism and Indian Removal, Ethnology and Empire reimagines U.S. literary and cultural production for future conceptions of hemispheric American literatures.

Описание: A collection of histories and first hand narratives There are few more famous or evocative characters in the history of the American south-west frontier period than the Comanche war chief, Quanah Parker. Every student of the period knows that Quanah was the son of an abducted American pioneer girl, Cynthia Parker. This book collects into a single, good value, Leonaur edition six contemporary perspectives on the events that led to the birth and life of Quanah Parker, each of which is too short to be individually published today. Included are two histories as well as personal accounts by James Parker, Rachel Plummer, Cynthia Parker and Robert Carter. The text covers the period from the raid on Fort Parker which brought about the abduction of the nine-year-old, Cynthia Parker to when the adult Quanah was at the zenith of his power and at war with U. S. Army. These accounts, available together for the first time, are primary source material and are thus essential reading for any serious or casual student interested in the subject. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
